Three days later, the Red Cloud City Inn.

Zhu Xiaoxiao drank a bowl of milk in front of him, and said to Zhong Xiong, who was sitting under him: "Lord Zhong, what the lord of the country said, how do you decide?"

Zhong Xiong offered his hand and replied: "Lord Zhu, you also know that our Zhong clan has always been loyal to the Xia Kingdom, whether it is expanding the territory or now guarding the frontier, we have gone all out, and we have not slacked off in the slightest. Now the request of the lord of the country has pushed our clan into the abyss!" The surroundings were quiet, and the eight generals of the national capital and the twelve shields of Red Cloud City who were accompanying them were also sitting in danger. Waiting for Zhong Xiong's words later.

Three days ago, after Zhong Xiong read the letter from the head of the country, he was angry and sad. The letter contained an incident for Zhong Xiong to decide: the Zhong clan would send 100 children between the ages of 8 and 10 to the Celestial God Sect every ten years, and the Celestial God Sect would teach martial arts and spells. If you don't learn art, you can't return to the Hui people.

The Desolate Heaven Continent is the name given to the continent where the current Xia Kingdom and countless countries are located. After countless years of baptism, especially after the legend that all the gods and men went to prevent a catastrophe in which the entire continent was wiped out, and the enemies came together, the current Desolate Sky Continent has gradually changed from the original world where gods and humans coexist to the current human race is still multiplying and the original powerful gods have disappeared on this continent. There is no pure Protoss on this continent today, and only a few people with the imprint of the blood of the gods remain. They are the descendants of God and man.

The Celestial God Cult appeared on the continent after the disappearance of the gods, and it has a history of thousands of years, and no one knows who founded it, nor what force it belongs to, or even what the purpose of its establishment is. However, no one on the entire continent could go against the wishes of the Celestial Gods. Anyone who violates it will be mercilessly slaughtered, whether it is a person or a country. A man will not die from a man, and a nation will not be destroyed from a country.

The reason why Zhong Xiong refused to hand over the 100 children was because all the people who became the Celestial God Sect never appeared in front of the world again in their original identities. In this case, how could Zhong Xiong be willing to let his clan lose 100 hopes for the future every 10 years? This is the future and hope of his own clan! Handed over to the Celestial God Sect, it has become a remnant of life, and the entire Gang clan will no longer have a chance to emerge, and his descendants can only be reduced to thugs and slaves of the Celestial God Sect.

"Lord Zhu, none of the parents in the world are willing to lose their children, although the Heavenly God Sect is mysterious and powerful, but the pain of separation of flesh and blood and the lack of hope of the clan are unbearable for our Zhong clan. ”

Zhu Xiaoxiao nodded as he listened, and after Zhong Xiong finished speaking, he stared at Zhong Xiong's eyes and asked, "Patriarch Zhong, do you know the consequences of disobeying the Heavenly God Sect?"

Zhong Xiong also stared at Zhu Xiaoxiao's eyes and said, "We naturally know what the consequences are, and we also know that no matter what I choose, Xia Guo will definitely not care about us anymore!, right?"

"Yes. Zhu Xiaoxiao replied affirmatively: "The Heavenly God Sect has already negotiated with the Xia King in the national capital, no matter how you choose, it is just a private matter of your Zhong clan, and the Xia Kingdom will not send a single soldier to help you!

"In doing so, the Xia Kingdom is completely abandoning my clan, your inaction will only fuel the arrogance of the Heavenly God Sect, it is conceivable that if the Heavenly God Sect needs the entire Xia Kingdom to bow down, there should be no more soldiers fighting for the country. ”

Zhu Xiaoxiao was silent, how could he not understand? Today, the Heavenly God Sect wants the Xia Kingdom, and the Xia Kingdom does not dare to resist, and he wants the Xia Kingdom every day, so how can anyone come to help stop it? But Zhu Xiaoxiao has no choice, he is just an official of the Xia Kingdom, and he has no decision-making power, so he can only do things according to orders. So he couldn't say anything to comfort this Patriarch Zhong. I had to pick up the bowl in front of me and drink it one by one.

"Hmph, even if we Red Cloud are isolated, we are not afraid of their Celestial God Sect, and we have the ability to give it a try to us" Zhong Yong of the Red Cloud Twelve Shields replied loudly with excitement on his face.

"Huh. How do you try it?" a voice resounded throughout the inn!
